gcc errors

[chrestme]

I'm receiving errors when attempting to build from source on an Ubuntu 12.04 machine.

Following the steps:
./synclibs.sh
./autogen.sh
./configure
make

gcc: error: @LIBFDATETIME_CPPFLAGS@: No such file or directory
gcc: error: @LIBFGUID_CPPFLAGS@: No such file or directory
gcc: error: @LIBFWNT_CPPFLAGS@: No such file or directory

The synclibs.sh file makes no reference to these libraries. But I see the Makefile under libfvalue references these on line 540-542 under AM_CPPFLAGS.

Possibly Pertinent Info: I need to build this on an air-gapped machine, so I downloaded the repo on another, Internet-connected machine (running same OS version), ran ./synclibs.sh, and then copied that directory to the target machine and tried to build.

I opt to use the stable track source package instead, you find the download link on the wiki. The git version is the development version of the experimental track.

Since the project is still moving there is some more documentation updating to do, to make clear that the git version is primarily for development. And I'll update synclibs as well.

Thanks. I was having some trouble opening the googledrive link, I think due to network issues. I was eventually able to work around it, and pull down the 20140608 tar bundle, and I was able to build that just fine.

synclibs.sh updated; now to update documentation and to include that flex and byacc are needed to build from git as well.
